In each job, you'll find a Time tracking tab where you can manage your time tracking for this job. You can start and stop tracking time for the job from this tab, but also add, edit and delete time entries.
To start tracking your time for a job from your list of jobs, simply click on the clock at the end of the line of the job.
A live time tracker will then replace the clock.
To stop tracking your time for the job, click on this live tracker. You can also stop the time tracking by clicking on the stop button in the menu (below the LSP.expert logo).
To manually add a time entry, click on the Time tracking tab in the job, and then on Add a time. To enter hours and minutes, you have several options: '30 minutes' can be written '0.5', '0:30' or ':30'. You can then edit or delete your time entries using the three dots at the end of the lines.
To include some or all of your time tracking entries in your invoice, you have to select the 'Time-based invoicing' option in the job details. For this, you have to edit the Billing panel of the job and select "Time-based invoicing" in the Invoicing type field.
If you already tracked time for this job, the system will ask you if you would like alI your existing time entries for this job to be marked as billable.
If only some of these time entries are billable, you can go and manually mark them as billable in the time-tracking tab of the job after you selected the "Time-based invoicing" option in the billing details of the job.
Your time tracking entries will also be used to calculate your performance in the Performance report. To know more about the Performance report, see this article: https://help.lsp.expert/en/articles/728069-what-does-the-performance-report-show.
If you're using LSP.expert as a team (Team subscription), note that several users can track their time simultaneously. Each user indeed has a separate time tracker.
